7.1.1Cursor Vs. Home Mode

Cursor Mode

When the cursor is shown on the Chart page, this is called Cursor mode.

In Cursor mode the position of the vessel will not stay in the center of the page and will move right off the edge of the screen (as your boat moves) Cursor mode allows you to pan around and look at areas on the map. In this mode your can also measure distance and bearings from your current position.

NOTE

To change from Cursor mode to Home mode press [CLR].

Home mode

When the ships icon is only shown on the Chart page (cursor is not shown) you are in Home mode. Now as the ship moves through the water the vessels position will be kept in the center of the display.
